It is titled 'The Merchant', a fictional story about the most inspiring sea masters of all time. The man who owned a thousand-ship fleet and almost all the gold in the world faces a cunning conspiracy plotted by underworld crime lords, pirates and traitors to bring him down after winning the most powerful King, the Red King, on their side by exposing the Queen’s love to the Merchant.At a Time of wooden ships, armadas and pirates came a Merchant with the biggest fleet in the world. One thousand ships, hundreds of canons and thousands of men made the Merchant’s fleet untouchable by pirates or any naval forces. At that point, his legacy started to build up. People worldwide heard stories of him, his power, his kindness, his eccentric trades, the beauty of his ship ’Venus’ and his wealth. Strong, wealthy and loved, the Merchant started to worry Royal Courts, though he was known for being neutral and peaceful. What added to it is that no one knew his name nor his fleet origins; no one even knew his homeland. He lived aboard. He built a house on his ship in a world full of conflicts. Still, no one could tell to whom his allegiance belongs. A threat lingered indefinitely in the minds of every King and Queen he was friends with, especially the Red King, the most powerful King of all, who invaded every Kingdom at that time except for those beyond seas he couldn’t reach. The Red King, whose wife, the Queen, is secretly in love with the Merchant. His enemies will grow tense, and the potential allegiance belongs. A threat lingered indefinitely in the minds of every King and Queen he was friends with, especially the Red King, the most powerful King of all, who invaded every Kingdom at that time except for those beyond seas he couldn’t reach. The Red King, whose wife, the Queen, is secretly in love with the Merchant. His enemies will grow tense, and the potential conflict becomes denser and denser. The Red King’s minister will plot a treacherous plan to bring The Merchant and his fleet down, with the help of the underworld crime lords family, 'The Blacks', and the first man who will betray the Merchant in the hope of marrying the minister’s daughter Prima. The ’Blacks’ will hire all the pirates with the promise of a hefty share of the Merchant’s gold. After the minister exposes the Queen’s secret love to the Merchant, the Red King himself will orchestrate a violent attack against the Merchant and his newlywed bride ’Isabella’; the gipsy girl whom the Merchant met at the Kingdom of ’World’s Edge. They will succeed at capturing Isabella, wounding the Merchant, and even wiping out half of his fleet, but the Merchant will not fall into submission.
